Advertised as an unfiltered ipa, it has just a bit of cloudiness, but is otherwise a nice gold with little head.

Nose is fresh pine needles and lemon zest.

Taste is again pine and citrus. Really nice clean flavors.

Not a lot of malt backbone, this is more on the “hop water” side of things. Pleasant astringency in the finish.

Overall good IPA. A little malty for my taste, but smooth and hoppy. Would order another pint.
